1881406 - Remove or update probes expiring in Firefox 126: WEBEXT_DNR_* before Gecko version gets increased to 126 on 2024-03-18

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1881399

(WebExtensions :: Request Handling, task)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 126 [1].

WEBEXT_DNR_EVALUATE_RULES_MS
WEBEXT_DNR_STARTUPCACHE_READ_BYTES
WEBEXT_DNR_STARTUPCACHE_READ_MS
WEBEXT_DNR_STARTUPCACHE_WRITE_BYTES
WEBEXT_DNR_STARTUPCACHE_WRITE_MS
WEBEXT_DNR_VALIDATE_RULES_MS
extensions.apis.dnr.startup_cache_entries
extensions.apis.dnr.evaluate_rules_count_max

What to do about this:

1. If one, some, or all of the metrics are no longer needed, please remove them from their definitions files (Histograms.json, Scalars.yaml, Events.yaml).
2. If one, some, or all of the metrics are still required, please submit a Data Collection Review [2] and patch to extend their expiry. There is a shorter form for data collection renewal [3].

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #data-help Slack channel or the #telemetry Matrix room at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#telemetry:mozilla.org. We'll give you a hand.

Tracking because e.g. toolkit/components/extensions/test/xpcshell/test_ext_dnr_startup_cache.js checks for this.
